Land, its buildings, its resources, the wealth of a nation and the legacy for its people. To benefit society, a nation's land must be developed wisely and professionally. In all matters concerning land and buildings apart from the provinces of the lawyer and architect, it is the surveyor who is trained and qualified to advise and assist, to realise the potential of the land to ensure maximum return with minimum risk. In Britain, it is the chartered surveyor whose title acknowledges that training, guarantees that qualification and proves he has met the standards required for election to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors entitling him to place those jealously-guarded letters after his name. From the British sovereign, the RICS holds a royal charter charging the body to maintain the highest standards of competence, integrity and confidentiality in its member's conduct of a client's business. Of the 50,000 qualified members of the Institution, over 5000 operate outside Britain and many practices undertake international work from headquarters in Britain and elsewhere.
